Rhenus Gießen – For every need and demand
A new drainage solution concept was needed for the expansion of the Rhenus location in Gießen. A channel drainage
system was required that could stand up to the loads in
extreme heavy-duty transport areas, was equipped with
an optical maintenance joint and that ensured a tight seal
against liquids like fuels, oils, mild lye and acids. BIRCOsolid
Pfuhler System Z – Type K has an inspection opening in
each channel unit with slotted cast gratings compatible for
everything up to load class F 900. The removable slotted
cast grating on the channel end enables quick, easy maintenance and optical inspection of the sealing joint at any
time and without any tools. And the construction length
of 4 m per component saved time and reduced expensive
installation work.

System Z – Installation Instructions
1. The regulations contained in the general WHG Certificate No. Z-74.4-46 of February 01st, 2012 that are relevant for conducting installation must be observed.
2. Depending upon the characteristics of the sub-stratum
and the frequency of traffic over the traffic area, the
reinforced concrete slot channels must be installed on
a carefully sealed bed of gravel-sand or chippings (frost
protection layer) as well as a sub-base course made of
C 25/30 (Class D) concrete or a structurally calculated
reinforced concrete foundation (Class F). The nominal
values providing the basis for the structural calculation of the sub-grade underneath the foundation or the
sub-base course and the minimum dimensions as well
as the minimum reinforcement of the foundation are
provided in the standard drawings regarding installation and bedding for the respective load class contained
in the comprehensive laying instructions and must be
complied with in their entirety.
With load class F, the upper facing of the foundation to
be positioned underneath the channels must be contoured according to the stipulations of the standard
drawing in accordance with DIN 1045-1 in such manner
that toothed interlocking results. This contouring must
be executed diagonally to the direction of the channel
line. Alternatively, the granular structure of the concrete surface of the foundation can be exposed. The
connection between the channel and the foundation
must be made with a joint connected using a grouting
mortar or an adhesive grouting mortar or swelling grout
mortar that is approved by DIBt Berlin. The grout joint
must correspond with at least the strength property of
C 25/30 concrete. If the subsequent entry of moisture in
this joint cannot be ruled out, then the frost-resistance
or resistance to frost de-icing salt of the grouting material must be taken into consideration.
3. Reinforced concrete slot channels are to be laid with
suitable hoisting equipment that ensures even, precise
and delicate hoisting and lowering. The slot channel lifting equipment provided must always be used in this
process.
In the case of class D 400, the slot channels are to be
laid in the prepared grout bed and the height is to be
aligned using wedges. It is not permitted to conduct all
of the tamping afterwards due to the necessity of the
bedding covering the entire area.
Class F 900 channels must be placed on appropriate
spacers and aligned. The gap then emerging between
the channel unit and the foundation must be filled with
the grouting mortar indicated above in such manner
that it is ensured that the bedding covers the entire surface of the channel.
Elastomer spacers are attached to the front face ensuring compliance with the end joint width. The channels
must be positioned in such manner that the spacers on
both components are touching. If no spacers are present, the correct end joint width can also be provided
for by inserting wooden slats of the appropriate thickness into the joint during positioning, for example. If
necessary, the alignment of the surfaces is to be conducted by laying wedges underneath.
No forces from the adjacent traffic areas, e.g., as a result
of temperature stress for example, may be transmitted
to the slot channels. If these are made of stiff materials such as concrete, then such considerations must be
made in the planning. Therefore, expansion joints (no
dummy joints) in the correct dimensions are to be provided in the plates along the length of the reinforced
concrete slot channels. In order to enable the transfer of
braking forces from the channels to the adjacent components, a continuous line of EPS hard foam panels EPS
EN 13163 CS (I0) 150 with a maximum width of 8 cm or
an equivalent is to be installed along the joint over the
entire height of the channel between the channel units
and the traffic area. These plates may not be so heavily compressed as a result of expansion of the adjacent
surface pavements that they transfer horizontal forces
from the surfaces to the channel units.
4. Once laying and finishing work of the adjacent areas
has been completed, all of the longitudinal and diagonal joints are to be filled with a joint sealant officially approved by the presiding building authorities
for storage, filling and transferring facilities for waterhazardous substances. The corresponding installation
instructions and stipulations of the manufacturer of
the sealing material must be complied with. An assembly and inspection opening is provided for this purpose
on the end joints of the channels.
5. To avoid flaking on the borders and edges, reinforced
concrete slot channels may not be driven over during
the construction phase prior to completion of the adjacent traffic areas. When using sealing equipment or
Page 95
BIRCOsolid slot channel Pfuhler System Z
road finishers, it must be ensured that they are not led
too close to the reinforced concrete slot channels.
with no prior notice. Go to www.rohr.de for the latest
comprehensive laying guidelines.
6. Prior to installation of the lateral traffic areas or backfilling, a leak test must be performed in the style of DIN
EN 1610, 13.3 “Testing with water (procedure >W<). In
a departure from the regulations therein, the channel
units are to be filled with water at the lowest point up
to the upper edge of the slots, and the water level must
be kept constant throughout the durance of the test. For
the amount of the maximum amount of water to be filled in, the values of DIN EN 1610, 13.3.4 are relevant.

7. The above laying instructions represent general instructions with no relation to the specific installation situation. Consequently, the additional requirements that can
apply from local government, statics and other factors
in a genuine installation situation must also be taken
into account. Changes can be made at any time, also

BIRCO and the Neu-Ulm concrete manufacturing
factory bundle core skills
Drainage specialist BIRCO is responsible for the sales in Germany and the countries it borders of “Pfuhler slot channels
– System Z” manufactured by Betonwerk Neu-Ulm (‘NeuUlm concrete factory‘) for the drainage of facilities for the
storage, filling and transfer of water-hazardous substances.
In turn, the BIRCOsolid slot channels designed for the same
area of application are produced at the Neu-Ulm facility.
BIRCOprotect
The product range that the cooperation encompasses includes two variations of officially certified channel drainage systems for utilisation in facilities for the storage, filling
and transfer of water-hazardous substances, also for use of
the channel storage volume as storage space in the event
of accidents.
BIRCOsolid
The concrete factory in Neu-Ulm has for years been one of
the leading manufacturers of slot channels and other concrete and reinforced concrete products for supply and disposal. The cooperation agreement for officially certified slot
channels was officially sealed in August of 2006 by BIRCO
owner Frank Wagner (BIRCO) and Betonwerk Neu-Ulm
owner Michael Goebel.
BIRCOquality
Both manufacturers are market leaders in the surface pavement drainage segment, and with this cooperation they
bundle their skills in the production, development and sale
of slot channels for facilities conducting the storage, filling
